Setting up a Friends Group & Gaining Local Wildlife Site Designation

Longden Road Cemetery is a beautiful, but rarely visited site near the centre of Shrewsbury, Shropshire. Through survey, publicity and events a Friends Group has been set up with volunteers carrying out work parties.

St Mary's is in the centre of Moseley, Birmingham but had become forgotten. It was overgrown with monuments in need of repair and serious anti-social behaviour taking place. Through hard work and a Heritage Lottery Fund Grant, the churchyard has once again become a shared, community space.
